Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what assessment he has made of the results of deregulation measures involving medicinal drugs. [11132]

Deregulation measures involving medicinal drugs have helped remove unnecessary or costly burdens on business without compromising the need to protect public health. The Government keep these measures under review and take further action as appropriate to maintain necessary safeguards.
